It has been said by others who have done ls swaps with similar blazers that a fuel pump from a Chevy pickup with a 5.7 engine between 1997-99 will drop right in to my tank and produce 58+ psi, but some folks say you need the fuel sending kit too, and others say that you do not. Does anyone know whether I would need a fuel sending kit too? New, they are very expensive (about $450.00). If I need it, I'll try my luck pulling one from a bone yard.
Thanks!
Got my Dirty Dingo motor mounts yesterday. I'll have to post some pictures of them on the engine in a bit. I probably will not be able to do the R&R until the second week of September.
